Not to be recommended as a 5 star hotel perhaps a 3 star

The hotel reception and foyer are nice and give the feel of a nice hotel, however, the quality of room and bathroom leaves a lot to be desired. The room quality at BEST is 3 star rating and no more. Bathroom was small and cheap and the beds were uncomfortable and not what you would expect for a advertised 5 star hotel. Guests must pay for internet access within the foyer "business centre" and the cheapest card available is €10 for 30 minutes, this was surprising as most quality hotels has free access for guests.

Not impressed - rooms old and tired

Arrived late at the hotel and all you want to do is get into your room and relax. Service was curtious and polite but the standard of rooms are poor. I paid for an executive room and the first room was tiny, dark and tired. Window view was within a yard of brick wall and the room smelt of damp, I complained and got moved to another room that was down in the cellar, many steep stairs, no lift. I opened the bathroom door and the smell was rife (pipe problems). The third room I got was basic and small but no smells in need of repair, didn't have the energy to complain again after nearly an hour moving rooms.

Convenient Location

Very convenient when arriving from the station. Just out of the station and cross the road.Check in staff were pleasant. Room was alright, but not sure if the duvet cover was clean as there was an unpleasant smell on it. Good size room. Toiletries in bathroom and tea making stuff in room. Didn't spend alot of time in the room, but it was ok.

Not Impressed

I was not impressed by the hotel service atal, as when we were ready to check out of the hotel room the telephone rang and it was one of the people from reception saying "wer we checking out some time today??" We were then left with impression that we were aloud leave our bags in the hotel room and when we came back to collect them and to check out . Our deposit of a €150 was reduced to €70 as we got charged for leaving our bags there. When i asked the receptionist why had we been charged she was highly ignorent and was not very proffessional. And in addition to this complaint i also have a complaint of the time we checked in at we got our room a 2 o clock the friday which was very unfair because we wanted to check in at 11 o clock and had to walk around amsterdam waiting for a room, this was not a very well ran hotel.

Great location and leisure suite

Our three children (23, 16 and 9) were able to have three beds in their own room - which was great for them and for us! The hotel's location opposite Central Station made coming and going during our stay very easy. The pool is small but fun and the sauna and steam room etc really relaxing. Great to have after a day walking round the city.

The perfect hotel for Amsterdam tourists

The initial impression of the hotel had me worried. Our room wasn't ready, so we had to wait 30 minutes. We were, however, given a free drink each in the bar. The room, when we got in, was not good. It overlooked a busy street and the balcony doors didn't close fully, so it was both draughty and noisy - we could hear conversations on the street below. I went to reception and asked for another room. This was provided with no fuss and this room was as expected - warm, clean and comfortable. We had booked an "Executive room" which meant there was a coffee machine in the room and breakfast was included. Well worth the extra.

Great location and great price

I went with my boyfriend for the weekend at the end of Jan 09 and we had a great time. The hotel is clean and the rooms where really pleasent and a lot of effort had been put into it. It was'nt the biggest room in the world but it served its purpose. Staff where friendly and I would definately go back as the location was excellent. Could'nt have had a better location. As soon as we steped out of central station we could see our hotel. Really good pick considering the price

Very Enjoyable Stay

Ideal Location. Opposite Central making it very convenient in travelling to and fom Schipol Airport. Many sights just a stones throw away, the red light district was about two minutes away, as was Dam Square, the National Monument and the Royal Place, Anne Franks House was about a fifteen minute walk, and then the rijsk and Van Gogh Museum were about half an hour away on foot. The service I recieved was fabulous, there was a mistake made on my room on arrival but the staff were only to happy to sort it out as soon as they could. The rooms had recently been re-decorated and refurbished, so it was very clean and well kept. The only thing that let it down, is the food. I'd recommend eating out of the hotel.

Great Location

This hotel is in a great location opposite central station.The public areas ,the lobby,bar and brasserie are in excellent condition and relaxing. The room was clean and comfortable although looking a little tired ! The facilities in the room were okay. The hotel has a pool although not the biggest was perfectly adequate for a nice relaxing dip. Overall, I would say this hotel represents outstanding value esp compared with some of the more prestigous hotels in Amsterdam!
